Chapter 46: For the Electric Flying Cat to Eat Fruit Is Only Natural!



Chapter 46: Chapter 46: For the Electric Flying Cat to Eat Fruit Is Only Natural!

The night deepened,

under the bright moonlight, Iron Head sat beneath a large tree, with a big cabbage beside him.

“Crunch…”

Looking at the fully cultivated land, a sense of inexplicable emptiness and loneliness welled up inside Iron Head, even the vegetables he ate no longer tasted sweet.

So boring.

Really want to work.

A faint rustling sound suddenly echoed, Iron Head stood up abruptly, eyes alertly scanning around, patrolling the whole farm.

Among the tasks Chen Yuan entrusted to him, one was to guard the farm at night.

“Crunch.”

Iron Head perked up his ears, stood up abruptly, his metallic arms and blades guarding in front of his chest, and walked forward with steady steps.

To sneak into the farm, you have to get past me first.

After a while,

several figures gradually appeared at the farm gate, Iron Head’s eyes widened instantly, nerves tightened, ready for battle.

“Howl howl.”

The next second,

upon hearing a familiar sound, Iron Head pursed his lips, arms drooped naturally, nerves instantly relaxed, falling into prolonged silence.

He turned and left, returning to the tree to gnaw vegetables once more.

Chen Yuan noticed Iron Head’s reaction and was puzzled, but didn’t mind, placing the iron cage containing the Electric Flying Cat in the yard.

He glanced at his phone, seeing the time was not yet too late, he squatted down, meeting the gaze of the Electric Flying Cat curled up in the cage, only exposing a pair of black eyes.

“Do you admit your mistake?” Chen Yuan asked.

“Dian Dian.” The Electric Flying Cat pouted, turned its head away.

Eating fruit is only natural!

I did nothing wrong!

“You must have heard earlier, if your awareness doesn’t meet the mark, I’ll keep you in the cage.” Not surprised by the little one’s reaction, Chen Yuan continued.

“Dian Dian!”

The Electric Flying Cat’s eyes shifted, a sly glint flashed across them, it hurriedly nodded.

I’m wrong!

Chen Yuan stared at the Electric Flying Cat for a good while, saying nothing, until the latter couldn’t endure his prolonged gaze and turned away, then he chuckled, “You sure are sneaky.”

After a brief pause, Chen Yuan called over the Extraordinary Creatures translator and asked, “Tell me about your background, where did you come from, why steal fruit.”

“Chirp.”

Spark stared intently at the Electric Flying Cat, a piercing look like sharp arrows stabbing into the latter’s heart.

The Electric Flying Cat instinctively lowered its head, facing the intimidating Spark, it recounted its background.

It turned out this Electric Flying Cat came from a far, far away place, traveling precariously, moving from place to place, finally reaching the nearby small woods.

Then it smelled an irresistible scent, unconsciously wandered to Uncle Zhao’s farm, and took the Luminous Fruit along the way.

“You can smell the scent from so far away?” Chen Yuan asked.

“Dian Dian~”

The Electric Flying Cat slightly raised its head, looked at Chen Yuan with a puzzled expression.

Can’t you?

Chen Yuan was momentarily speechless, then asked, “Can you only smell the Luminous Fruit, or can you also smell other Spirit Plant scents?”

The Electric Flying Cat proudly raised its head: “Dian Dian.”

I can smell all sorts of scents from far away.

Hearing this answer, Chen Yuan’s eyes couldn’t help but brighten.

If it’s indeed as the Electric Flying Cat says, then it’s definitely the best helper for finding Spirit Plants.

Chen Yuan quietly noted this invaluable information, then frowned and asked another question: “Since you’ve had such a rough time, how did you deal with the Gray-armored Wild Boar?”

The Gray-armored Wild Boar is large, with thick, solid skin, crashing into it could send the Electric Flying Cat flying.

“Dian Dian~”

The Electric Flying Cat raised its head, it waved the yellow wing membrane on its back, its expression becoming extremely proud.

That dumb creature?

It can never catch up with me!

I can fly!

Chen Yuan thought carefully, having to nod.

Indeed, the Electric Flying Cat didn’t need to face the Gray-armored Wild Boar head-on, simply tugging away and it could steal the Luminous Fruit.

“Yowl!”

Hearing this, Cola widened its eyes, full of envy yet helpless.

Flying is truly amazing!

With those thoughts, Chen Yuan fixed his eyes on the smug Electric Flying Cat, sternly said, “You know, this kind of behavior is called stealing.”

“And that’s not right.”

The Electric Flying Cat tilted its head, confused.

Stealing?

Those fruits just grow there, aren’t they waiting for me to pick?

Watching the Electric Flying Cat that didn’t think it did anything wrong, Chen Yuan exhaled lightly, deciding to shift the approach: “Let’s say, suppose you painstakingly planted a tree, just waiting for the fruit to ripen so you could eat it.”

“Dian Dian.”

The Electric Flying Cat slightly nodded, a hint of longing surfacing in its eyes, placing itself within the scenario Chen Yuan described.

“But just when the fruit was ripening, an odious creature stole your fruit while you were off guard, smug and unrepentant, stealing it a second time, what would you do?”

Upon hearing the question, the Electric Flying Cat instinctively bared its teeth, with a fierce but cute expression, wielding its claws, body sparking with electricity.

“But you are that odious creature.”

Chen Yuan calmly said as he looked at the angry Electric Flying Cat.

The expression on the Electric Flying Cat’s face turned extraordinarily colorful at this moment, its expression rapidly shifting, eventually lowering its head, curling its body into a roll of reddish-brown fur.

Even its eyes were hidden.

“Avoiding won’t solve any problems.” Chen Yuan observed, his voice steady and calm.

“You need to recognize your mistakes, and confront them.”

The Electric Flying Cat stayed curled up, showing no reaction.

Chen Yuan gazed at the shallow scar on the Electric Flying Cat’s back, sighed secretly, and after a moment of silence said: “I understand your situation may not be ideal, perhaps you’ve been bullied by other Pet Beasts, maybe you’ve gone hungry.”

The Electric Flying Cat’s triangular ears perked up slightly.

Chen Yuan’s voice became gentle: “Just stay here for the time being, I’ll take care of you, no Pet Beast will bully you, and you’ll have enough to eat each day.”

The Electric Flying Cat suddenly lifted its head, its black eyes staring blankly at Chen Yuan.

“When you’ve reached a higher level of awareness, I’ll let you go.”

“Dian Dian…”

Looking at the sincere expression on Chen Yuan’s face, the Electric Flying Cat muttered softly, its tail gently swaying.

Spark gave Chen Yuan and the Electric Flying Cat a skeptical look, slowly furrowing its brows.

“But let’s make it clear ahead of time, you’re not allowed to attack anything on the farm. If such behavior is found, Spark will help me teach you a lesson,” Chen Yuan said.

“Chirp.” Spark gathered his complicated thoughts, nodded slightly.

“Dian Dian.”

The Electric Flying Cat nodded as well, gradually stretching out its body.

“Alright, I trust you.” After saying this, Chen Yuan opened the iron cage and reached out his hand to the Electric Flying Cat, “Let’s formally meet, I’m Chen Yuan.”

“Dian Dian.”

The Electric Flying Cat hesitated for a moment, then extended its furry paw.

“Hmm, I must quickly improve Cola’s quality.”
